Whispers in the distance

whispering love to distant ears.

 

 

 

Whispers in the distance

 

Whispers in the distance

A wavering sort of sound

Sifting through the twilight

When no one is around

 

Simple in distinction

Comforting and free

Touching every treetop branch

Sent to you from me

 

Neath a starlight shining

Sunset on the mist

True in its affection

Upon your ears now kissed

 

Finding of its journey

Hope to call my own

Standing here this evening

My heart is not alone

 

Careful words are chosen

Thoughts provide the way

My imagination

Never more to stray

 

Phrases in the moonlight

Spoken steady pace

Heaven hears my promises

Made tonight, this place

 

Hear, for I have spoken

A sentence bold and true

The whispers in the distance

Say that I love you

A beautiful read to start my day, dear friend. The title captured my attention, the words - definitely another favorite! Anyone who has loved from afar will resonate with this piece. Love the imagery and emotions portrayed. Leaves one longing for that perfect togetherness with that special someone.

Another poetic gem that reaches right for the heart of anyone who knows what it's like to love from afar. My favorite lines are:

Neath a starlight shining
Sunset on the mist
True in its affection
Upon your ears now kissed

Delicate and beautiful words, Jack. :)
